WTB MacBaren Burley London Blend (01/12/21)

I was able to get a few tins of this from the last release and I'm liking it much more than expected. Anyone have some sealed tins they are willing to let go?

Thanks

Have you tried Golden Extra or Symphony?

I have one unopened tin of the Original BLB from 2011 and a small amount jarred.

At that time, I liked BLB, but of the MacBaren Burley, My Favorite, also discontinued at the same time as BLB is Norwood.


I stocked my cellar when I’d heard the terrible news. I’d be more apt to part with some Norwood as I have enough. It develops a richer, chocolate note. But PM me about the Original Tin of BLB. -Jim

I have not. I've read in reviews that both are similar, but I'm always skeptical. I really enjoy the chocolate note of the BLB. Also to note, I have only ever had the latest release of the BLB as i just starting piping a few years ago. Thx

None of them are like each other. There's some variance of toppings, burleys, and Virginias in each one.

Thanks Jim, I’ve always appreciated your input. Hope all is well with you and your wife.

I've got 3 tins in the original sleeve from the late 1970's............... they have the Fireside Industries" import sticker on the bottom. PM me if you're interested.
